Ludwig van Beethoven
Piano Sonata no. 18 E flat major op. 31 no. 3
For half a century Henle’s edition of the Beethoven sonatas – the “New Testament” of the piano repertoire – has been universally recognized as the standard starting-point for any serious study of these works. Now, with the publication of the three op. 31 sonatas in revised separate editions, we are raising the yardstick another notch: no less a musician than the pianist and conductor Murray Perahia has agreed, for the first time ever, to publish his fingerings and, as co-editor, to confide his profound insights into the sources to music lovers everywhere. The musical text has been prepared in strict accordance with the rules of modern Urtext editing, and the volume is rounded off with a lengthy and informative preface and detailed notes on sources and alternative readings.

About the Composer

Ludwig van Beethoven
No composer has had as profound and sustained an influence on immediately following generations to the present day as Beethoven. His instrumental music, especially his symphonies, served as touchstones for symphonic composition throughout the nineteenth century. The extraordinarily high standard of his music and his relative independence as a freelance composer have led to his being characterized as the greatest composer of all time.

Twenty years ago, in an article comparing all the available Beethoven piano sonata editions, I judged that the winner of the competition was Henle’s Wallner. Since then, little has surfaced in the way of sources and, barring the sudden appearance of autographs for the early sonatas (or the much-lamented ‘Hammerklavier’ autograph), new editions will be assessed more on judgement than discovery. Seen from this angle, Henle’s new Beethoven edition, though still in its infancy, gives every indication of giving players and scholars a great deal to learn from.
Nineteenth Century, 2006The Beethoven, edited by Norbert Gertsch and Murray Perahia, has a wealth of helpful fingering suggestions by Perahia. Interesting notes regarding the sources and variations in the score are provided and make for intriguing reading.
Clavier, 2006De prachtige Urtext van Henle verhaalt de hele continuing soap story. Het kritisch commentaar biedt een minutieus inzicht in de verschillen tussen de overgeleverde bronnen en Murray Perahia voorzag de partituur van vingerzetting.
